Summer Concerts Start Next Week at the Commons
By Sophie Braccini
The Moraga Park Foundation is ready to begin the popular free summer concert series at the Moraga Commons Park (corner of Moraga Rd. and St Mary's Rd.) According to the Foundation, the lawsuit that a resident living in the vicinity is pursuing against the Town does not impact this 25+ year old tradition because, "The lawsuit (is) related to a provision of the Town's sound ordinance and will not directly impact the Summer Concerts," wrote the Foundation in a press release, "Summer concerts will go forward as planned."
The 2011 concert season kicks off on Thursday, June 16 with Rukatan, a Latin and Reggae music group. The free concerts will continue every Thursday evening, with the exception of the first week of July, when the Thursday concert is replaced by a Monday concert that is part of the day-long 4th of July festivities.
